1 Utah Goldback - Beautifully Made Currency Containing 1/1000th Oz .9999 Fine Gold

The Goldback is a voluntary, spendable, small denomination form of physical gold. Despite their incorporation of state names, please note that Goldbacks are not actually issued by any state. 

The premiums per ounce on Goldbacks are higher than more cost-efficient forms of gold, including even small gold coins, bars, and rounds.  For those primarily seeking exposure to gold, we do not recommend putting money into Goldbacks as an investment.

The Utah Goldback Series is the first Goldback Series to ever be produced. It was drawn by Cheri Jensen, a local Utah artist, who does beautiful, intricate work, despite being blind in one eye.

It tells a somewhat chronological story of Utah throughout the series progression, highlighting specific pivotal moments in its history before the settlement of the Mormon Pioneers, through the settlement of the area, and some historic moments pertaining thereto. The progression culminates in an idyllic future representation of reaching a type of transcendence toward which we are encouraged to aspire through the application of the virtues featured in the series.

These are each shown on one of the Goldback denominations as a backdrop for the Lady Virtue being portrayed and symbolized thereon. Please enjoy the Utah Goldback Series.

The Utah Goldback Series begins with the 1 Goldback Design, and it is filled with different symbols and cultural nods. The virtue Prudentiae, or Prudence, is featured here as a Native American woman, having many items and attributes traditionally attributed to coming from each of the five most prominent Native American tribes in Utah, namely: the Ute, Paiute, Goshute, Shoshone, and the Navajo.

Prudence is seated on a sandstone rock next to an ancient bristlecone pine tree (one of the longest-lived trees in the world), nodding to the throne that Prudence is traditionally seated upon, an elevated status as a virtue from which many virtues claim their origin, and the wisdom learned through the ages.

She is gazing into a mirror held in one hand, symbolizing perspective, learning from experience, and using hindsight. On her other wrist is a copper bracelet in the form of a snake, representing the struggle of trials as well as using wisdom to make choices. At her feet is a chipmunk, suggesting the preparations that they make each year ahead of winter as a symbol of prudence through preparedness.

The wolf is next to her, calling out to all who listen to use prudence, and how the use of gold is a keystone to an economy, just as the wolves of Yellowstone are keystone predators, and the removal of either has shown a deterioration of their surroundings.

The footing: “Deal Prudently” can also be found in the bottom right corner of the artwork. Finally, in the background, Bryce Canyon National Park’s Natural Bridge formation is shown with Canada geese flying in formation.

Goldbacks can be, and are, used for barter transactions with anyone who recognizes the value of gold.

    Utah Goldbacks Are Bliss.
    Beautiful design and when I travel to Utah I use my goldbacks exclusively as currency. If you haven't tried it, give it a shot. This will replace fiat dollars.

    Gold backed currency
    If you have seen the way the world is going and look back to the great depression. We are going through the same thing be smart and get silver and gold now before its to late. I have been researching about gold backed currency and its a great way to start buying gold plus if a shtf happens paper money will be useless. This is great way to bargain and trade with without have to melt down a bar or gold round coin
